OPTIONAL ACCESSORY CHART
You may need an eyepiece as sold separately. The telescope does not come with the eyepiece as standard accessory
unless you purchased a package.
Visual Configuration
Magnification of the Telescope
Photographic Configuration
When using an eyepiece with short focal length (small number in millimeters), the image will be dim and the range of sharp focus will be small.
The image will be harder to see so begin with an eyepiece with long focal length (low magnification).
Dividing the focal length of the telescope by the focal length of the eyepiece gives the magnification.
Example: Calculating the eyepiece magnification of a telescope with 800mm focal length.
Eyepiece Focal length of telescope Focal length of eyepiece Magnification
NLV20mm 800mm
÷
20mm = 40x
NLV 5mm 800mm
÷
5mm = 160x
